Oh cool. Well I guess an SE would work. I would just have to do a little painting. I could just grab a set of SVT mirrors as well.

Did you do the painting yourself? Off the shelf spray cans? Or do you have a sprayer. They turned out really nice.

You can easily paint them.

Kinda bringing back a thread but. When looking for a sedan should I avoid the 00's & 01's and stick with a 02-04? Any major problems that could become a headache later on?

The earlier focus SE you could get the zetec in it was apart of the sport package. This consisted of zetec engine, fogs, rear spoiler and tach. So, If you are looking to get a earlier focus 00-02 with zetec I would keep an eye out for the ones with the spoilers.

I am hoping i get a sedan next summer to replace my 96 sunfire. Looks like i could pick a decent one up for give or take $4000. Those 5 spokes look really good on the sedans. Gives them a "sport" look.

That's a nice kit. I couldn't find that when I wanted to do mine. I knew it was out there, I just pieced everything together from members on here. Then I cut it up to git a svt lower.
